A few weeks ago, I travelled through Denmark with many fellow architecture students. These are my favourite photos of that trip (all of them are taken by me). Move your mouse on the photos to find out more about what’s shown in the picture.
The first day of our Denmark trip was spent in Copenhagen. We took a big walk around the old center of the city, while passing some cool new buildings as well, and ended the day with a delicious dinner at BioMio.
This series is a collaboration between Tim Green (designer/illustrator), and Matt Shelley (a London-based photographer/physics genius). All the photos were taken on Matt’s travels around Bolivia and Peru on the Inca trail and are processed and collaged by Tim. His goal was to give a 1970s sci-fi/isaac asimov book illustration feel to them.
It’s been a while since I did one of these posts, but in these dark times we call exams, things that make us smile are very welcome right?

Leaf-shaped post-its by APPREE. There’s a ginkgo tree in front of my house and I think it’s so beautiful. I loved it when the leaves came falling down and covered everything in their bright yellow color. My favourite tree!

These boots. Does anyone know where I can find them? This picture is from ilovevintage, but as far as I know, they only sold them in their shop in Amsterdam, which is quite a trip for me.
“I collect second hand tourist guides. Within the century of printed photographs that they contain, I search for plates that have been printed at similar scale, taken from a similar view point.
When I find a near match between book plates, I cut and fold the pages into a new single surface. The dates written on each work give the publication dates of the books I have used. Whichever has been used as the ‘base’ image is listed first.
The patterns I use to cut the two book pages into one single surface are such that all of both sheets of paper are preserved. If you were to fold all the flaps in or out, the entirety of each image will be seen. The act of folding one image into the other pushes them out into three dimensions in a bulging time ruffle.
The Universal Now works operate as a resurrection of the unregarded book plates and forgotten photographers that have stood in the same places at a different times, bringing these moments into a dialogue and into the present. The Universal Now takes its title from debates about time continuum in quantum physics.”
